I feel sorry for them
Discussion
Have you ever visited one? I have not, but did a couple of developing ones
No. Id never step foot in a communist country.
First visited Vietnam and Laos in the early 2000's, lived in China a couple of years later and visited (briefly, just a few hours) North Korea for work in 2009, through China, not from the south. Hellholes all of them, in a gradient of course.
Also, I live in Western Europe, so there's that.
